Rollaway Bed Sheets

Rollaway beds need special size rollaway bed sheets for a reasonably correct sleeping comfort fit. These beds have been a popular way to provide additional sleeping space. Rollaway beds, also referred to as foldaway beds, have a definite advantage over their stationary cousins. While a stationary bed takes up space when not in use, the rollaway bed easily stores away in a corner or closet until it is needed.

Rollaway beds have long been a staple in homes, offices, motels and even luxury hotels. In the home, a roll away bed is a great way to provide overnight guests with a comfortable place to sleep. Quality rollaway beds feature a mattress that is thicker and more comfortable than alternative like futons and sleeper sofas. Cheap futons can feel lumpy and the mattresses on the average sleeper sofa may not feel very comfortable to some folks. Of course some rollaway beds have horrible mattresses but how long do you want your guests to stay anyway?

In the office, a rollaway bed discreetly stored in a closet, can be pulled out when needed. Recent sleep studies by agencies like NASA show that there can be a marked benefit to grabbing a twenty or thirty minute power nap. Power naps have been shown to increase productivity and alertness. Having a rollaway bed handy is great way to grab that power nap. A great comfort addition to the rollaway bed is the proper rollaway bed sheet set.

Hotels, motels, beach resorts and inns all have folding rollaway beds handy. Whether to accommodate overflow guests or being able to quickly add another bed to a room, the rollaway bed is the perfect solution. Even hospitals, nursing homes and other types of medical facilities often keep folding rollaway beds on hand for use during natural disasters and unforeseen medical emergencies.

Size and Fit Does Matter

So it is easy to see why quality bed linens for roll away beds as still in demand. As a specialty type of bed sheet, sheets for roll away beds are available, though not necessarily at the corner department store. This is primarily due to their unique size.

*A rollaway bed that is forty eight by seventy five inches is the same size as an antique bed.

The good news is that despite the unique size of rollaway beds, we offer a large selection of rollaway bed sheet sets.

The average rollaway bed sheet set includes a fitted bottom sheet, flat top sheet and a one matching pillow case. Our bottom sheet fits snugly and has elastic sewn into the edge seams completely around the entire perimeter. The flat top sheet is sized properly, allowing enough fabric to be tucked under the mattress.

Fabric Choices

When it comes to bed linens, there is no doubt that cotton remains the most popular and affordable fabric. Cotton fibers have been used for thousands of years and cotton is grown in many parts of the world. Cotton fabric is easy to clean and long lasting. As with any fabric, there are different grades of cotton that can affect quality, feel and comfort. Cotton is an extremely durable fabric and when blended with fabrics like polyester holds that crisp, comfortable feel and good fit even after repeated washings.

When choosing rollway bed sheets look for sheets that have a thread count of at least 200. Thread count is the measurement of the number of thread per square inch of fabric. Shoppers can find inexpensive bed sheets with thread counts as low as 80 but these will feel course and flimsy. The higher the thread count, the softer the bed sheets will feel and the longer your sheets will last.

Our rollaway bed sheets are available in many colors and several fabric choices.

Always Use a Rollaway Bed Mattress Pad

When purchasing rollway bed sheets it is a good idea to buy quality mattress pad. A mattress pad will add a layer of comfort to the mattress and help keep your roll away bed mattress clean. A roll away bed mattress pad will keep dust and dirt off your mattress and keep dust mites from gaining a foothold. These microscopic pests can multiply by the millions, even in the cleanest homes.

Regular use of a quilted cotton mattress pad will reduce the amount debris that reaches the mattress. It is always best to use a fitted mattress pad that is washable and has a good fit. The mattress pad should be machine washable which makes cotton a good choice.
